None of the claims have been confirmed, however celebrities being accused of crimes of a sexual nature is not a new thing at all.

Many are still trying to wrap their heads around American musician, R Kelly's sexual assault charges that were brought against him early this year.

Several women in America have since been coming out in droves to share details regarding that fateful day.

Another legendary American actor was also embroiled in a sex scandal - Bill Cosby.

Bill was accused of sexually assaulting several women - dating back from many years ago. Some of these women included, Helen Gumpel. A former model and actress. She was an extra on the 80's hit television show, The Cosby Show. This lady in question revealed that Bill invited her to his dressing room, whereby he tried to sexually assault her.

Both sides of the story have been put out. Therefore we await the ultimate outcome with regards to Psyfo's situation and the woman involved.
